Haha man Jokisch has been busy. If only he could get that BB rate down a bit.

Anyone know if Bryant is ever going to play baseball?

[Gilby]

Anyone know if Bryant is ever going to play baseball?

 

He went to AZ a few days ago, so I think he's supposed to be in Boise by next week.

[Guest]

Dae-Eun Rhee is up to Tennessee.

Yes, I do in fact believe Bryant will play baseball again.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Is he just going to work out and take BP in AZ, or do you think he'll actually play a few AZL games before going to Boise?

[craig]

I'd guess he'll play in 2-3 Mesa games before going to Boise.

[Quakers]

I'd guess he'll play in 2-3 Mesa games before going to Boise.

 

With my luck he will be promoted to KC by the time oise swings through Oregon again :(

I haven't seen Gleyber Torres in any box scores yet. I assume he will play in the VSL. Is that correct? Anyone have an idea when we might see the kid start playing some games?

Isn't it next year?

Yup. They sign 2014 contracts.

I had no idea. I guess it's safe to stop looking then.

The "older" guys can sign 2013 contacts. We may see the pitcher we signed show up this season.

ACab is back up in Iowa finally. Glad to see it.

Some #IowaCubs news: RHP Alberto Cabrera promoted from AA. C Luis Flores activated from paternity leave. C Chad Noble sent to AA. #Cubs #PCL

 

Also, Junior Lake is apparently getting called up and...

Yeah, Jefferson Mejia is the one to look for in the DSL. The Cubs have let Asian 18-year olds debut in Instructs thus far so even if they sign Jen-Ho Tseng, I doubt he gets into a box score this year.

[RammyFanny]

Yelich robbed Alcantara on a line drive to center that would have been a single. Baez got the count to 2-2, but struck out on a slider out of the zone, after taking a slider out of the zone the pitch before

[TruffleShuffle]

daytona washed out =D>

[TruffleShuffle]

jose paulino (DSL cubs) has a real nice K rate. struck out 10 in 5 innings today.

Durn.

[CubsWin]

jose paulino (DSL cubs) has a real nice K rate. struck out 10 in 5 innings today.

Yeah, that would give him 43 Ks and 7 BB in 31 innings. That's 12.48 K/9 and 2.03 BB/9. The 6'2" lefty struck out 60 and walked 20 in 60.1 innings as a 17-year-old and doesn't turn 19 until next April. Of the two 17-year-old lefties in the DSL last season, I thought he would be the one to go north, but it was Carlos Rodriguez (he of the better numbers but slighter build) who went instead. Perhaps, Paulino used that as motivation...

 

Incidently, Rodriguez turned 18 today. He hasn't been all that impressive in the AZL so far posting a 3.38 ERA but giving up 9 BB against 9 K and just over a hit per inning. Still, not terrible given his age.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Ugh, Javy with the Golden Brett tonight.

Yes, I do in fact believe Bryant will play baseball again.

 

Actually, I've heard he's opting to forgo his baseball career to persue his true passion; needlepoint.
